Dragon

I see Black Dragons flying around
I'm looking at the sky from cage
But I'm here on the ground
And nothing helps me more then rage
I know there is nothing I can do
I know there is no one I can ask
And I'm trying to break through
The Mirror… it's always was my task

Oh, little Dragon in golden cage
You were captured by evil mage
Oh, little Dragon – broken wings
You only toy for stupid kings

My hope is dying behind the bars
I want to be free again
But my skin is full of scars
My heart is full of pain
And now I see: mage sharpen knife
He wants my royal blood
I feel – I'm going to lose my life
Where is Black Dragon's God?

Oh, little Dragon in golden cage
You were captured by evil mage
Oh, little Dragon broken heart
You weren't very smart

My broken wings reminding me
How story has begun
I flied and played above the sea
Was happy with water and sun
But suddenly I saw red gem
It's laid on human's hand
Mage lured me with magic gleam
I landed on the sand

Oh, little Dragon chaos in mind
How could you be so blind?
Oh, little Dragon ancient grace
Do not lose hope for your race

Mage threw net and caught me in
And the he cast the spell
And lifeless body, you know what I mean
He took to the cage in high tower's cell
I was in this cage many days and nights
Have been watched by human crowd
They looked at me: kings queens and knights
I was upset but so proud

Oh, little Dragon soon you will die
Clan's leader going to cry
Oh, little Dragon this is your last day
You have no chance to run away

But I understood – I was so wrong:
Mage needed only my blood and my eye
I saw his white dress and heard his dark song
I knew, he was ready to slay
My heart flooded by fear
When he tied me by spell
He cut my throat, I felt it so clear
And then someone rung the bell

Oh, little Dragon with cut throat
You were killed like a goat
Oh, little Dragon you'll never fly
You know this world is full of lie

Last thing that I heard was song of my clan
They came to save me from fate
I was taken to be healed to our den
My curiosity has turned into hate
And now I have scar on my neck
It's there since those dark days
I'm happy that I could come back
We – Dragons have own ways

Oh, little Dragon now you know
Humans always playing weird show
Oh, little Dragon don't be so sad
You have revived from the dead

Remember Dragons: never trust
All humans will betray
They were created from some dust
Our life is beautiful ray
Be careful when you fly
To somewhere at day light
And if you don't prefer to die
Be ready for a fight…

Oh, little Dragon you were so bold
You know the meaning of cold
Oh, little Dragon now you old
The story has been told.
